Ok so I've been absent around these parts for a while...but I only got one result hehe 100710 Introduction to Honours Research - 84 DISTINCTION - omg so close! I have one result pending as all honours stuff has to be double or triple marked and I'm assuming that is still happening...

Technically lectures are compulsory, and personally I would try to sit through a couple more of them at least before you decide not to attend the rest. In my degree lectures were extremely important and were where I got ideas clarified and all that sort of stuff. Actually, I miss lectures, full...

3 units is still considered full time so it's ok, but you should really have 4...so perhaps you should be enrolled in something else...or you have a free elective that you haven't yet chosen or enrolled in? I would contact the unit co-ordinator to make sure, as if you are meant to be enrolled in...

If you're going to Kingswood campus, it's the first place the bus stops at, and that takes like two minutes. If you're looking for Werrington South or North it does take a little bit longer. but it's not 20 minutes to the actual Kingswood campus...it doesn't stop anywhere between the station and...

I have to take two trains too, at least the bus is free ;)

It's not listed in the course handbook, and I've never come across it personally, so it does not appear to be offered. You will most likely start February 26. Though you'll know for sure when you register for tutorials what days you'll have to go. Autumn semester begins on February 26 so it...

Penrith's is being renovated yes, but in class today my tutor told me that everything necessary should be available at the start of the semester, by next week perhaps. The books you need may be available at other campuses, just enquire and see what they can tell you.

Oh cool, well I'll keep on the lookout. Mind you a lot of people who do honours have trouble with this first graduation process...so we'll see how much everyone can stuff it up!

Well either way I'm technically commencing a new degree this year so... Jacks - Bachelor of Arts (Honours) - UWS Penrith

Ok, sure there may be a few "westies" or whatever you'd like to call them but to be honest I'd say there is just a mixture of everything. As you'd know if you're going to UWS but don't live in "Western Sydney" not everyone who goes there lives there, and thus they certainly do not play to the...

It depended on how long I needed to wait for trains and stuff like that, but on average between 2-2.5 hours...less if you get express trains of course. From Hornsby actual you can get a lot of express trains, but I usually got on the train a few stops away. It's a little less if you change at...

I travelled from Hornsby to East Hills to get to Bankstown Campus haha...the travel won't kill you, just force you to do some work on the train maybe ;) About dairies though...I never got one in my 3 years at bankstown campus, so don't hold your breath for one. I found some campuses gave them...

Actually, anyone wondering about the Penrith Shuttle bus, its ruote, times etc please see the link below. http://www.uws.edu.au/about/adminorg/devint/cwf/maps/penrithshuttlebus

Yes that is where you catch it from. I caught it from there yesterday. So anyone unsure should go to the bustop just outside of the station, from where you can see the subway shop just across the road.

Yes there is a shuttle bus and it's free. I'm going to be going to Kingswood to do honours this year, so I went yesterday to check out the campus and transport options. There is a bus shelter outside of the station, and the bus picks you up from there. You'll know it when you see it, it says...

Thanks Cape! I got a call from the uni yesterday about honours saying everything was cool for me to start on Monday. I guess that means no news is good news Klh! Actually Klh, a friend told me today that they asked uni, who said they would email them graduation stuff on Monday, so check then...

Thanks for the good luck, I'm going to kingswood today to have a look at everything and make sure I know where I'm going. I was worried that not getting something may mean I haven't finished without realising it...but I think if that were the case the people in charge of honours would know...

No I haven't as yet, but I'm living in hope. I wouldn't worry, I start honours classes on Monday (5 Feb) and haven't got anything in the mail regarding where I go or what's going on haha. We should get a pack in the mail soon I'd say.

I did SDD in year 11/12 but no maths...lol... Anyways if you're interested in doing the course that's cool, but generally speaking it is assumed (or at least preferred) that you have done 2u or 3u maths. If you're worried that you may not have the necessary mathematical skills or knowledge...

How it works in some cases is that you need a GPA of 5 excluding your first year. The university boards (and honours applications need to be approved by two separate panels) realise that as a first year you're really only starting to get the hang of things...and they tend to give you a bit of a...
